JDirector 2.2.1_imca44 released

J. Lewis Muir Friday February 12, 2016

JDirector 2.2.1_imca44 has been released. This update provides improvements and fixes to the crystal view and diffraction centering.

  • The Crystal View "Save Camera Image As..." pop-up menu item operation will now display an error message to the user if no suitable image writer was found based on the name of the destination file. Previously, an exception was thrown if the file had no extension, or, if no image writer was found for the extension, a zero-length file was written, and the user was not informed that no suitable writer was found.
  • Increased the size of the manual diffraction center result history from 10 to 20. This is helpful for projects where there's a need to compare rasters when there might be multiple sites of interest or when regions might be rasterized again with a smaller cell size.
  • Improved the diffraction center moves and syncs of the XYZ stage and Phi. In the auto-mode diffraction center, the move or sync of Phi was not interruptible, so if it hung, there was no way to stop it. This has been changed to be interruptible. In the manual-mode diffraction center, when the XYZ stage or Phi were moved or synced, it did not wait for those operations to complete. This has been corrected.
